Emergency Preparedness

A community emergency preparedness is only as good
as the preparedness of its citizens. Make emergency preparedness a
priority for you and your family. There are a number of simple
actions that you and your family can take to better prepare for a
potential emergency.

Shelter-In-Place Instructions

Get indoors quickly.

Shut all doors and windows. Turn off the air conditioning.

Stay away from external windows and go to an interior room, taking a radio or TV, phone, wet cloth or towel, plastic sheets, and duct tape.

Seal the air vents and all openings around all doors and windows.

If you happen to smell the chemical or have trouble breathing – breathe through the wet towel or for higher protection go to a bathroom and turn on the shower in a strong spray.
